Filter View

This widget is the spiritual successor to GridSearch, and adds the ability to configure advanced filtering controls to listviews on native.

⚠️ This widget is only for use in Mendix 8. In Mendix 9, filter nanoflows can be used to achieve the same functionality with out-of-the-box components. See the wiki page for more details

Features

• Implement configurable filtering on a listview on Native
• Model your own filter inputs (using any combination of widgets/nanoflows/attributes)
• Use those inputs to define dynamic filter constraints via expressions
• Apply filters to any datasource (database or nanoflow)

Implementation

Model your own filters, how/where-ever you need!

Configure the filters via expressions (connecting your filter inputs to datasource attributes)

🎉

TODO:

• Add support for numeric filter types => added Big.js comparison operators and GT/GTE/LT/LTE numeric operators ✅
• Change the constraints to be "AND"ed => changed constraints.some() to constraints.every() ✅
• Remove the filterContent placeholder => removed ✅
• Add support for datetime types => added instanceof Date type for attribute type, and comparison operators ✅
• Expressions as constraints(?) 🤯 => changed all constraints to be expressions ✅
• Allow one source value to be searched in multiple target attributes(?) => you can just do this in an expression with or ✅
• Rename something more awesome. => Filter View ✅
